Is there an actual seahorse emoji? Or was there before a certain time?

In Ohio elementary schools books about seahorses are banned because the male seahorse carries the babies or something. So given the state of AI, how it's been Metal Gear Solid 2'd by the regressives, I can't help but wonder if there is a connection

In the prime timeline (the one where the Bell Riots and Irish Unification both occurred in 2024) the seahorse emoji was added in Unicode 12.0 (in 2019), but in this timeline none of these events have occurred yet.

See here and here for more information.

I see. I'm not an iphone user so I'd never have known. I don't really like timeline SciFi, with a few exceptions, but I get the Mandela effect meme. Thanks for the update. Recent events have made me super conspiracy brained

You can use emojis on pretty much any modern device for the last decade or more
